hi friends,
Respiration is any of the various analogous processes by which there is an exchange of gases.
SIMILARITIES:
The waste products of carbon dioxide and water are also formed. Combustion, which is the burning of carbon compounds, which are fossil fuels, is often compared to cellular respiration because the two processes are extremely similar
DIFFERENCE:
respiration :
1. It is a biological process. It is under biological control.
2. It takes place at normal temperature.
3. Respiration is a slow process. Thus the energy is also liberated in several steps and remain stored in the form of ATP.
4. Several enzymes are involved. The process is bio chemical.
5. Only part of energy is liberated as heat.
6. Oxygen is employed as an oxidant only at the end of the reaction.
burning:
1. It is a chemical process. It is an uncontrolled process.
2. It takes place at high temperature
3. Combustion is a fast process in which the energy is liberated only in one step resulting in increase in temperature and production of fire.
4. Enzymes are not involved. The process is physio chemical.
5. Most of the energy is produced as heat.
6. Oxygen is directly used in the process.

Respiration
Explanation:
- Similarity: Both the process of respiration and burning utilize oxidation to release energy.
- Difference: Respiration is a biological process and under biological control and takes place at room temperature.
- It’s a slow process, so the energy gets released in several steps and stored as ATP (adenosine triphosphate) in the body.
- Burning is a chemical and uncontrolled process and takes place at high temperature .
- It’s a rapid process, the energy gets released in only one single step and creates a peak in temperature which ignites fire.
